I”m sure our smug city councilors dug up their choice candidate and “voted” for him long before last Tuesday. I don”t buy into this public charade.

Diversity? No, this guy Sor Lo will vote lock-step liberal, and everybody already knows it. This is obvious and without a doubt, because the game is rigged just like so many suspect it is.

Oh, you mean racial diversity? Andy Holcombe, Ann Schwab and Scott Gruendl aim to appoint a councilor not by the results of the democratic process we just went through, but by racial background? Really. And does the committee that makes race-based political appointments wear special armbands?

OK, maybe those councilors aren”t as racist as they project. Maybe they”re just blatantly crooked and corrupt, but if they do appoint Bob Evans, that will at least tell us that they feel the egg on their face.
